This latest development comes after Chief Minister Revanth Reddy’s visit to Delhi on January 5 where he also met the Union Defence Minister.  Revanth during his meeting with Rajnath Singh sought 0.21 hectares of the Defence land for the completion of a skywalk at Rythu Bazar in mehdipatnam to not only address the problem of traffic congestion, but for pedestrian’s safe passage.  The Chief Minister brought to the notice of the Defence Minister that skyway construction was almost complete and was pending due to delay in transfer of the Defence land for the project.  He had an elaborate discussion over the pedestrian problem at one of the bustling market places of the City.

Following a positive response, the Chief Minister also revised the plan in accordance with the Defence zone’s requirements.  The Centre while offering 3380 sq. yards has sought basic amenities to Defence worth Rs. 15.15 crores.  The Centre will be handing over the land within next four weeks.  With this the roadblocks for the major project  are cleared and pedestrians will be able to walk freely within a few months over the Mumbai Highway, added the officials.  (Maxim News)
